Personal Response:
I think this is a very sweet little book. Little Prankster Girl's desire to learn how to weave is reminiscent of any coming of age story. This story does a good job portraying traditional Navajo culture. However, the story doesn't indicate whether or not it is set in current day
School/Library Uses:
As I was reading this book, I thought of several stories that this reminded me of. Students could compare and contrast this story with another story.

or not (this could be part of the charm of the story). It easily could be, I just wouldn't want people to get the picture that this is what life is like for all Navajos today. It still has a very good story, and a positive message. School/Library Uses:
